Chapter 21 Comfort
"Your Highness is more interesting than I thought." The white-haired female insect sighed, "Then Your Highness found me, is it because you want to kill me in advance?"
This is a life-threatening question!
An Lang put on 100% of his energy and said, "Of course not!"
He sighed: "Hey, let me tell you the truth, I'm not the original owner."
"The original owner died of a high fever two months ago. And I came back to life in his body." An Lang raised his eyes and took a look at the villain's expression. Seeing that he was actually listening to him carefully, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He gently pushed away the villain's hand on his neck and said, "Well, why don't we sit down and talk it over."
An Lang skipped the system and just said that he dreamed of his head being pulled out three years later.
"In my dream, the person who killed me, no, Chong, had white hair and pink eyes. Although I can't see it clearly, it's most likely you."
"So when I saw you really show up, I was still quite scared, but you didn't kill me, you even saved me."
"So I wanted to find you and have a good chat with you." An Lang took the opportunity to flatter you. "After all, you look like a highly intelligent and communicative bug."
In fact, Lan Xiu believed An Lang almost everything he said as soon as he opened his mouth.
After all, he had been with An Lang for so long that he had already noticed his differences.
Not only with the original body, but also with this world.
'Anlang' is like living in a stable, peaceful and equal society.
He also suspected that An Lang had recalled his past life memories and wanted to adopt a conciliatory policy.
But first, that idiot didn't have such good acting skills, and second, 'An Lang' didn't know that the Lan Xiu he kept by his side was him.
If the core of this body was replaced, everything would make sense.
"Who are you?"
"Uh, do you believe what I say now?" An Lang asked cautiously. He sat up straight and said, "My name is An Lang."
He explained: "My last name is An and my given name is Lang. Oh, how should I tell you..."
Seeing that the villain was still reluctant to respond, An Lang scratched his head and sighed: "Since you are from the Lan tribe, you must have suffered a lot."
"I've already mentioned the Orchid Tribe's situation to Mantis Lord. I can't say their situation will improve significantly, but I will definitely investigate the issue of organ trafficking and gland castration to the end."
"If you have any requests, just tell me. I will definitely do it if I can!"
The white-haired female insect didn't answer. He stood up and said, "It's almost dawn."
As if possessed by some mysterious force, An Lang reached out and grabbed the corner of his robe.
"I, I also want to know something." An Lang said, "Did the original owner hurt you?"
He was answered with a chuckle, but even though it was a laugh, the solemnity and murderous intent penetrated his bones.
"He cut off my wings, gouged out my glands, and threw me into the 'Infinity' to watch me fight the Star Beasts."
He leaned over. "And I cut off his head, gouged out his eyes, and skinned him."
"Sorry." An Lang pursed his lips. He was out of his mind to ask this. What's the difference between this and poking someone's scar.
When I looked up again, the scene before me was empty.
Only the snowflakes kept falling, pressing the branches lower and lower.
As the sky gradually brightened, An Lang realized that this place was not too far from where they were staying. As soon as he returned to the room, he found it eerily quiet.
"Lan Xiu, Lan Xiu." An Lang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lan Xiu wake up after being shaken by him.
"What is it, Your Highness?"
"fine."
An Lang knocked on You Zhuo and Lei Li's doors one by one, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he found that they were both fine.
It seems that the villain's strength is beyond his imagination.
You Zhuo and Rayleigh were both very talented among the new generation of the Mantis Clan, which was why they were sent by Lindbergh to protect him. However, they were both defeated silently by the villains - they didn't even know that he had disappeared and come back.
"Your Highness, what do you want me to do?" Compared to You Zhuo who was grumpy when waking up, Lei Li's temper was obviously better. He asked patiently.
Last night they were busy settling two injured people and contacting the army, and did not go to bed until very late.
I wonder what His Highness wants to do by getting up so early.
An Lang was not going to expose the villain's whereabouts. He couldn't beat him, nor could he defend himself. Moreover, his relationship with the villain had finally eased a little, and he didn't want to give up.
"Uh, I'm hungry."
"It was my oversight. Please forgive me."
Rayleigh quickly apologized. Even though there were basically no male insects waking up early at this time, ignoring the physical needs of male insects was the biggest mistake.
Rayleigh went to prepare the meal. You Zhuo asked sternly, "What are you going to do with the Zerg you bought?"
Only then did An Lang remember that there were two female orchid insects.
"Are they all awake? I'll go see them."
However, as soon as he walked into the next room, Anlang almost died on the spot.
What did he see!
Although there was no light in the house, the huge black shadow in the room was definitely not human-shaped!
"Get out!"
Although You Zhuo disliked An Lang, he would never dare to let An Lang die. Seeing that the female insect on the bed was in an unstable state again, he quickly pushed An Lang out the door and closed it at the same time.
"He's..."
"Atavism." You Zhuo ruffled his hair irritably. "Cutting off wings is a fatal blow to winged female insects."
"When their spiritual sea is unstable, they will appear in full insect form."
"He's dying."
"What? He was still in human form yesterday. Send him back to the main city for treatment..."
"It's too late."
The next moment, You Zhuo grabbed An Lang and flew towards the ceiling.
Before An Lang could be surprised, he saw the whole house being knocked through.
A large, praying mantis-like creature appeared in the house.
Its inverted triangle head, dark and dull eyes, and sharp forelimbs were the culprit that crashed through the ceiling.
"Level V frenzy." You Zhuo sighed.
He sent An Lang away and then quickly returned.
An Lang stood not far away and felt a little ridiculous for a moment.
His perspective is like the people in Ultraman when he was a child.
A monster that was three stories taller than the roof, and a humanoid creature struggling to fight it.
Not long after, You Zhuo's equally ancestral forelimbs quickly flashed across the giant mantis's thin and long neck.
A teeth-grinding crunching sound.
The inverted triangle head fell down.
An Lang's figure was reflected in the black, inorganic eyes.
Okay, a new psychological shadow has emerged.
An Lang was still in the mood to complain in his heart, but the next moment, his eyes rolled up and his whole body went limp.
Fine, another day of being afraid of mantises.
——
Running, fleeing, black compound eyes.
"ah!"
An Lang suddenly opened his eyes, which scared Lan Xiu who was standing by.
"Your Highness, you're awake!"
An Lang shuddered, and his entire back was covered in sweat.
“…”
"Bury the wings with him."
After a long while, An Lang said in a hoarse voice.
"Are the other bugs okay?"
"We're all fine." Lan Xiu replied softly.
"That's good." An Lang bent his arms and pressed his forearms against his eyes. "I'm fine now. Let's all go and rest."
The door was closed gently.
An Lang felt so choked up in his chest that he even wanted to burst into tears.
It's getting dark.
There is a dim sunset outside the window.
The loneliness of being in a different world swept over me.
"Phew..." He turned around and faced the wall. "That's bad."
The day before he was still thinking how great it was to be able to save the injured Lan Clan, but the next day he turned into an irrational insect.
He silently encouraged himself, wiped the moisture from his eyes, and took a deep breath: "Come on! Anlang!"
Just as he was mentally prepared to get up, he heard a chuckle.
An Lang was startled. He turned around suddenly and saw a familiar figure sitting by the window.
The long silver-white hair was dyed slightly golden by the dusk.
He was sitting with his back to the light, so his facial expression couldn't be seen clearly.
Just a pair of pink eyes that seemed to absorb all the light.
"I think Your Highness might be frightened." He said softly. The mixture of madness and cruelty that he had when he left last night had long since faded away. At this moment, his lowered voice actually showed a bit of gentleness.
An Lang felt a little embarrassed. His behavior just now was so stupid...
What’s the difference between this and shouting “Come on Lu Xiaokui” in public?
"Thank you for your concern." An Lang touched his nose.
I don’t want to thank him, it’s too embarrassing. I’d better let him live on another planet.
But this villain seemed to be a nice person, coming all the way to show concern for his mental health.
"But I didn't expect that Your Highness would cry." The white-haired female insect continued.
An Lang: “…”
“I didn’t cry!”
An Lang yelled like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
As expected, the villain is still a villain! I hate it so much!
The white-haired female insect laughed softly twice again, and An Lang saw that his pink eyes were curved into two crescent moons.
"You didn't come all the way here to laugh at me, did you?" After waiting for a long time and the laughter still hadn't stopped, An Lang couldn't help but interrupt.
"Your Highness has misunderstood." The white-haired female insect jumped down from the windowsill. "I really care about Your Highness."
He took two steps forward and said, "I am heartbroken to be misunderstood by Your Highness."
An Lang couldn't see any sadness on his face. Seeing the villain approaching, he was a little wary: "What are you going to do?"
"I just didn't expect that His Highness would feel sad for a slave."
An Lang's brow darkened for a moment: "I thought I could save him, but I didn't."
"Those Lan tribe members whose glands have been dug out are called 'new stock'. Perhaps it's because I chose Lan Xiu as the bamboo thrower."
The King of Wu liked swordsmen, so many people were wounded; the King of Chu liked thin waists, so many people in the palace starved to death.
What I had read in the textbook has now become a reality.
Even if he is not the emperor.
Simply because he is a pure-blooded male insect.
His choices and preferences may also cause hundreds or thousands of female insects to suffer.
Lan Xiu's heart moved. He was silent for a while. "'He' didn't choose Lan Xiu as a bamboo thrower, but many female insects of the Lan tribe still had their glands gouged out."
"This was destined to happen when the disabled female insect offered by the Orchid Clan was chosen to enter the palace."
An Lang pursed his lips, a little shocked: "You believe what I said! You are actually comforting me!"
This is totally different from what the system describes!
